All-New X-Men #41

With a sharp story and terrific art by Mahmud Asrar, and a potential sea-change for the series in the offing, it might be a good time for those of you who've strayed from the series to check in. Read Full Review

The conclusion of All New Xmen is a fun read. It was a quick two-issue arc that was fun, exciting, and highlights Bendis fine work throughout the series. How ever, the series as a whole does not have a sense of conclusion, which is where Uncanny Xmen 600 will fill the gap. Read Full Review

One thing All-New X-Men can boast is they've had A-list art throughout its run. Mahmud Asrar was the perfect choice to replace Stuart Immonen. The color hues that Marte Gracia adds brings extra emphasis to the panels. I love the panel layout choices, which change the reader's eye from group shots to close-ups. Read Full Review

As any other issue of the series, it's good. As a finale, it's a bit unsatisfying. Read Full Review

This was a well-written issue of a quality Bendis series, but it's over so quickly and so effortlessly that I think I have a little bit of comic book whiplash. Read Full Review

This issue assembles a sprawling cast for Bendis' conclusion, but doesn't give the older mutants adequate dialogue to fill out a compelling story. Read Full Review

To be honest, although I do have problems with Brian Michael bendis changing Iceman's sexuality and making Jean Grey peer in his thoughts, i thought this run really wasnt that bad. It is a good introduction to newcomers imo and while its not as good as Hickman's run on X-Men, it aint too bad.

Bendis is essentially running out the clock until Uncanny X-Men #600. The issue is just entertaining enough though, Jean pretty much runs the show at this point, and we may have some new additions to the team for whatever that's worth knowing Secret Wars could reset the status quo anyways.

Really didn't feel like Bendis knew what he was doing here.
